Divide the flour into 3 parts. Add the pink colour to the 1/3 flour and knead it. Knead the other 2/3 dough also. Roll all the 3 parts to a regular chapati size.
For the Satha, beat cornflour and ghee till light (It should float when placed in a bowl of water). Place the white chapatti on the rolling board with a little flour on it and spread the melted ghee and then the Satha on it.
Now place the coloured chapatti on it and repeat the process. (spread melted ghee and Satha). The white chapatti goes next with the same treatment. Roll them and cut into 1/2 inch pieces. With the layered side upward, press gently.
Deep fry on a low flame. Sprinkle sugar powder OR sugar syrup as desired. You should get approximately 12 Chirotes.
